BRIEF: A gallery to house a permanent display of works by recognized masters, like Picasso, Giacometti, De Koonig, Degas, and Dubuffet, all of whom are well—represented in the collection; there will also be community outreach spaces, like classrooms, a lecture hall, a café, a visitors’ shop, and an area for children’s art, as well as apartments and workspace for three visiting artists. An additional requirement is an exterior space, which can be used to hold “Art Symposia.” This exterior space should also accommodate informal concerts, performances, performance art, small—scale theatrical works, and community activities. The aim is to educate the public about art by making art a part of their lives and to create a reputation for Columbus as an art center by inviting internationally renowned artists to partake in these events.
